I was his steward. I let them escort him out. He got a very well paid for vacation. I don't understand why you think you shouldn't file on a warning letter. Doesn't matter if your local is the strongest in the world, if you don't file they can't represent you. Glad your not in my building.

All paper should be greeted with paper.

To the OP:

If your steward knows ANYTHING then he'll argue that they can't prove it was you that missed the scans. Fact is they can't prove it was any of the other 3 either. So you're all home free. Feel better?

Whenever you get a warning letter you should file a grievance. Your steward should know this too. Basically all management can show is that there were some missed scans. Unless you were the only person in there which was not the case so you're fine. All that said, just do the job and yup them to death. When you throw a tantrum like you described because you don't wanna get disciplined, you make the target bigger. Chicken legs isn't wrong. Pick your battles wisely. Making a scene isn't in your best interest, but filing on a bogus warning letter is.

 

[PT Stewie]

Have the steward contact the bussiness agent and have the local union issue a letter to the sort manager protesting the written warning. Saying they disagree with circumstanses of the issue and that they will not accept it etc. etc. We regularly do it in these matters so they do not advance any progressive disipline ie suspensions and so on. Do not look to the pt sup for help his job is a lot more precarious then yours being an at will employee.

Its when the sorters up top scan packages to make sure the loader is scanning all the packages they call it ad hops its just missed scans

Isn't it a conflict of interest for an hourly (pickoff) to do these scan audits, since they generate reports to potentially discipline another hourly? I've always thought it was managements job to do it themselves.

I'm wondering if there's any language in the contract (southern region) to help me persuade management.
